Karen, The wedding on Sunday was fabulous! A bit more elaborate than an upstate reception, but lovely nonetheless.

THANKS, Karen, for your book! It came yesterday and I've read it through about three times already...both so important and entertaining.

Karen, retirement is when things get really interesting! You can do the fun stuff and forget about the commute.

Thanks for the invitation Karen. When I taught elementary school I had a program to bring authors to the library. How wonderful for you school that their is always an author in your library!

Hi, Karen--I sure would like a copy of your book! I am deep into AASL appointments (want one? even a virtual one?) and my favorite food is cookies...not a good combination, I'm afraid...I worry a lot about childhood obesity. Both of my parents had diabetes with final illnesses and it complicated treatment so much...Thanks for the offer! Sara J

Thanks! For some reason my computer won't let me accept friends, so am sending you an invite.

Hi Karen, I am a high school librarian from the Denver metro area. Congrats on your book! How exciting. I just started working on a YA novel, I am not a writer but had an idea and maybe something will come of it. It will be one of my summer projects. Any advice?

Karen, My husband grew up in Plainview; although I was raised in the Albany, NY area, I graduated from Palmer Graduate Library School at C.W. Post. Next weekend, we're attending a family wedding at the Vineyard in (near?) Riverhead. VERY small world!
How wonderful that you've published a book - and on such a timely topic. My creativity, such as it it, is expressed in blog comments. Not sure if I have the discipline for an entire book: good for you!
Although I'm past the "normal" retirement age for teachers, because I came late to this career, I'm still working at the advanced age of 60. Love my job, but I have others things I'd like to be doing while I'm still mobile.
My district is Fort Ann, not far from the Vermont border. My home is in Queensbury, NY, located north of Saratoga and just south of Lake George. Gorgeous country for most of the year, but I yearn for warmer climes in the winter. For four years in a row, my husband and I have spent Easter week in Key West (see my photos for a few glimpses of Paradise!)
Nice to "meet" you - if you don't mind, I'll invite you to be my cyper buddy.
Diane
